It's clear now that at least two speedsters are joining Team Flash in season two. Wally West (nephew of Iris West) plays sidekick/successor to Barry Allen in the DC Comics Universe. Although his role/origin may be slightly modified in the CW sitcom, we're excited to see how he'll be integrated into the show.

When asked about Keiynan Lonsdale, executive producer Andrew Kreisberg said, “Just like when we met Grant for the first time, we instantly knew Keiynan embodied all the heart and courage of a hero. We are so excited to be bringing this much-beloved character onto the show.”

Lonsdale recently appeared in the film Insurgent.
Season two of The Flash premieres on Oct. 6 on the CW. [Comments]
